hand-dyed Fabrics


I've started selling some of my hand-dyed fabric, and have recently added many new pieces for you to choose from.

Each image below is linked to a page which will show you many more pieces of cloth, using a similar dyeing technique. I encourage you to explore; even within each section, the fabrics vary widely. FOR A PAGE WITH ALL THE FABRICS VISIBLE AT ONCE, CLICK HERE. It won't load as fast as this page, but you'll see all the fabrics, rather than groups of fabrics.

All fabric is 100% cotton, and dyed with fiber-reactive procion dyes. Most have gone through several different processes, which are described on the linked pages.
